Review of Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

I have never thought to myself that any show could ever replace the show I hold most dearest to me despite all of its flaws which is Guilty Crown in any way but despite that this show did everything and even better.I only regret not watching this show sooner. (Check my review for Guilty Crown too.Just to understand how high I held it at only to be beaten by Code Geass) Now where do I even start.I guess the story would be good place. This show is set at a fictional world where the Britania have conquered 1/3 of the world and has taken over Japan and tookits name away and replace it with the name Area 11.The Japanese people striped of their rights and country now named 11's and are the labourer's to the people who stole everything from them.Already does this not intrigue you?If not i'll just add that there are bad-ass Mecha's too.

Now to the main reason why this show is just so darn good.The characters and specificly our main protagonist Lelouch Vi Britania.

The Prince who was abbandoned by his own country,parents and even family.Along with his crippled and blind sister Nunnaly.He hides from Britania scheming and waiting one day to get his revenge on the country who abbandoned him,his sister and his now deceased mother.He is a tactical genius and great leader/manipulator(For you to decide).On the faithful day that he meets a mysterious girl named C.C his live forever changes as he is given the power of geass or the power of the King.With this power he can give 1 absolute command to anyone however only once per person,Lelouch finally has what he needs to get his revenge upon Britania or specifically his Father the emperor of Britania.With the disguise of the masked vigilante named ZERO he creates an empire from nothing named the Black Knights to fight Britania and bring peace to the world free of the Britanian empire.Taking down anyone in his way may it be his half siblings or even other opposing countries and even his best friend.Lelouch is a smart and witty person however is also very humane as he deeply regrets lying to the people close to him and using them for his goals.But instead of crying and weeping he has the will and the determination to push on for his goal.To me this is what a great protagonist should be rather than a plain and generic person who we are suppose to relate to without a real meaning.

The other characters are great too as they are never hindering the plot and serve their purpose well.All an all this is a great piece and will be remembered as one of the best original stories ever made.

All Hail Lelouch!!!
